Twenty years ago, Dean Fidelman asked a rock climber to take off her shoes and boulder nude, and his famous series Stone Nudes was born. The stunning black-and-white images of athletic figures captured in motion on cliffs in breathtaking wild landscapes have made Fidelman famous within the climbing community.

Fidelman followed his nomadic muses around North America and the world, framing them in the picturesque landscapes of Yosemite Valley; Joshua Tree; Moab, Utah; Patagonia; Europe; and coastal Thailand.

The sensual photographs uniquely capture the stark beauty of athletes on the stone, their muscular bodies camouflaging with the formations of the rocks they are poised on. This book will appeal to those interested in climbing, lovers of nude photography, as well as anyone who appreciates breathtaking images of improbable physical feats across stunning landscapes.

In 2009 Fidelman teamed up with John Long and coauthored The Stone Masters about Yosemite in the 1950s, and The Valley Climbers. His project Stone Nudes began in 1999, with twenty calendars and a self-published book released in 2010. John Long is an American rock climber and author of over forty book titles. His how-to books on adventure sports have been industry leaders for twenty years.
